Describing the Sunseeker Predator 68 an express yacht is a little like calling the Hearst Castle a country residence the words fall short of reality. In fact, the Predator is more motoryacht than express at least when it comes to luxury. Sunseeker has years of experience building superyachts like the Predator and they set the quality and performance standards for such yachts years ago. Constricted on a deep-V hull with a wide beam, the opulent three-stateroom interior of the Predator 68 is an impressive display of satin-finished woodwork, posh leather seating and designer hardware and furnishings. A gourmet galley is to port in the cavernous salon opposite a massive sofa with seating for eight. Two floorplans were offered, one with the master stateroom forward and the other with a full-beam master aft. Entertaining and socializing on the Predator will be done on the top deck where the hardtop (with huge retractable sunroof) and lounge-bar area are ideal for soaking up sun. A hydraulic swim platform and tender garage are standard, and the 68s large engine room offers good access to the motors. Among the best performing yachts in this class, MAN V12 1,300hp engines top out at over 35 knots.
